Who's going to the BPA AGM? And what's your plan?
gremlin replied to BethUK's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Rubbish. It is a pretext that lots of skydivers use to get togeather when the DZs are shut due to the weather and get totally incapacitated retelling stories starting "no shit there I was.." before dancing on tables and trying to find a space in a room for the night.

When I started jumping I had the same attitude - What's wrong with this? The rules are stupid and I'm safe... The longer I am in the sport the more I realise that there is a lot I do not know and that (most of) the rules are made by more experienced people to protect me. Would I do some of the stuff now that I did then? No. But I will always try to pass on advice so that people can enjoy the sport and try new and crazy stuff but do it safely.

I wanna join. Is there a rule that you have to be black to get in? Where do they draw the dividing line between those not black enough to join? Do they have a colour chart you have to stand next to? In all fairness racism is stupid. Lets all just kill badgers instead I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

I have never seen that sheep outfit before in my life.... your honour I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

I am a motorbike slut - I'll try to get anything between my legs

Don't forget me. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

Landing on the wrong side of the entire town in Empuriabrava. Don't trust the Yellow Otter pilot during boogies. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

I am going to be there. Went last year but had to leave before the dinner due to the Fire strikes. So this year I have to catch up on 2 lots of drinking I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine.... -
If the cat's diary suddenly stopped would we know who to blame? Or does it just affect kittens? I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

Anyone know where these ladies can be found... a "friend" of mine is interested ... purely for academic reasons.... I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

If a bloke came up to me and told me that I had a nice looking helmet I would be worried. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

I heard he only gets upset when people try to steal dances with other people's girlfriends I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

Consider yourselves lucky. We Brits have to suffer speed cameras. The police justify them on safety grounds but site them on fast straight (safe) roads where they know they can raise money. When you try to report a driving incident to them they are not interested as there is no money in that. One speed camera has reaised over £1 million so far and encouraged the public to regard the police as incapable and inept in all other departments. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

Empuria is an excellent place to jump - though the landing area can be a little tighter than some are used to. The town is excellent - and back on to the DZ. In Aug the weather is generally excellent but the town is packed and accommodation excellent. Top tip is the pizza van which lives in the car park of the nearest supermarket. Cheap and superb.

One of the problems is that every time there is an incident an uninformed journo writes whatever they feel would sell the story. We then end up playing hurtle, plunge, plummet bingo in the papers. If we had a proactive media spokesperson then the public could receive balanced accounts and may be more interested in what we enjoy. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

Quick... get one of the greenies to dock one of his posts off his score - or even better bust him back to newbie status for cheating. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

No 2 And put your USPA number underneath. Means we can identify the body.... from underneath the free beer wagon at Eloy in 10 days! I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

If I get it what would I have to put on the Visa appllication? Reason for visit: attempting to find soulmate by embarrasing myself on national tv for the next six weeks- getting thrown off and being treated as a pariah by all my friends? I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

That is one rather odd video. Know what I am going to be thinking of during my next formation jump though

It is amazing the size of hole you can punch in clouds with a big enough formation I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

Hope that DNA confirms that it is him. Saddam was famous for having several look-alikes during his rule and it would be embarrassing if it were one of these who got caught. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

Have you thought about one of those infant books that you can wipe clean - they would be waterproof and ideal in case you have another 'accident.' I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

It is not a case of the canopy police coming to get you but people trying to keep you out of the incident reports. A decent canopy pilot can get anything to fly well -one pro-swoop tour entrant has been seen swooping a Fury 220 on a waterjump. Observers were left asking what it was he was jumping and were surprised when they found out. You should be pushing the limits of your canopy before you downsize and that will take a lot of jumps. It is not the canopy but the pilot that makes the swoop look cool. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

Another option is having a ground mounted 'anti aircraft' system. As the birdmen swoop over head you shoot them. The laser could either deploy smoke or for more effect - their main! I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

Did my AFF course in Karlovy Vary. Great place - didn't realise it was 2000ft above sea level - mind you the winds were constantly so high that landing speed was never a problem. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
